Lyrics Thanks for the Memory (Live at the London House, Chicago, 1958) - Sarah Vaughan

Thanks for the memory
Of candlelight and wine
Castles on the Rhine

Parthenon, Parthenon?
Parthenon
I got stung with a word
Parthenon, Parthenon
Parthenon

Thanks for the memory
Of candlelight and wine
Castles on the Rhine
The Parthenon
I don't, I don't get this word here
Parthenon
One more time and, and we can go home

Parthenon!

Thanks for the memory
Of candlelight and wine
Castles on the Rhine
The Parthenon, the moments on the Hudson River Line
How lovely it was

So thanks for the memory
Of rainy afternoons
Swinging Bassey tunes
And motor trips, and burning lips
And burning toast and prunes
How lovely it was

Many's the time that we feasted
And many is the time that we fasted
Oh well, it was swell while it lasted
We did have fun, and no harm done

And thanks
Thank you, thank you for the memory
Of sunburns at the shore
Nights in Singapore
And nights I've been a headache
But you never were a bore
So thank you so much

Many is the time that we feasted, ha
Many is the time that we feasted again, we feasted again
Oh well, it was swell while it lasted
We did have fun, and no harm done

So thanks for the most craziest, upsettin', downsided
Recording date I ever had in my life
Da-da-da-daa
Da-da-da-da-dee
Da-da-da-da-da-dance
So glad that it's over
And thank you so much (woo)

Y'all go home now
Thank you so very much ladies and gentlemen for comin' out
Thanks
